Abstract
As part of the "Information Revolution," the amount of raw information available to computer users has increased as never before. Unfortunately, there has been a corresponding jump in the amount of unrelated information users must search through in order find information of interest. Harnessing the power of multiple users to form a collaborative filter provides a robust way of helping direct users to the information that will be most useful to them. To test this idea, we have designed a large scale collaborative filtering system tuned to help users extract information from Usenet Net News.
